Men’s endurance tech pocket bibs - close to perfect, but could use some refinements

Great fitting bibs with a couple minor shortcomings.
1. I’d love a version of these bibs without the added pockets. I carry everything in a pack or inside my frame, so the pockets are unnecessary bulk.
2. The material is full weight Lycra and ends up being too warm under baggies. Some light weight mesh material would be great.
3. Odd sizing. I’m normally between L and XL sizes. The XL bibs are a bit too small.

Overall a good bib and I’ll likely pick up a few more, but not quite perfect.

Sizing snafu

Love the bibs. Ordered 2 pair of XL, and both arrived with XL tags. However, after I cut the tags off and washed them I realized that one was actually a size L. I can wear the L, but it’s certainly a little snug and would prefer XL. Otherwise these are my favorite bibs.

Amazing

Bibs are great; pockets are surprisingly large and chamois material is great.

Great Bibs!

I bought these bibs to wear on longer days in the saddle and I am sure glad that I did. I wore these last weekend on a 12 hour endurance race and my sitbones thanked me. I was nervous at first due to the thinner chamois than what I had been previously wearing (theblackbibs) but these bibs were extremely comfortable! I never once thought about saddle comfort and that’s what you want from a set of bibs. The cargo pockets are excellent with enough room for gels, food, layers, or even a bottle. I’m a Clydesdale so I’m not easy on gear but these bibs seem like the ones for me!

I now own 8 of these!!!

I was looking for some bibs that did it all. I needed something to ride in from 1-4hrs. I needed pockets on the legs and in the back. But I didn’t want to “have to” wear shorts over top of the bibs. These are perfect! I wear them on road, gravel and mtb. They are my go to bibs now.

My favorite bibs

I keep a rotation of only these bibs. I love them for bikepacking races. I load up both the bib pockets and my jersey pockets over the top of them. I also love them on the trail for training and racing. I wear them with a cropped tank and use the pockets as my normal jersey pockets. I’ve even gone bibs only, it’s a great look!
The thigh pockets are also great for storing more calories and stashing extra clothing as I get warmer. One thigh pocket always ends up collecting trash from all of my snacks.

Best I’ve found

I’ve purchased at least one new pair of bibs every season for the last 20 years with most purchases for MTN use only. This is my third pair to feature pockets and by far my favorite of the three. One had only the thigh pocket, another only the back, to have both in one has been a dream come true. We’ve ordered a few things from Cognitive recently and have been impressed with the quality, fit and speed at which they fulfill orders. As my current items reach the end of their shelf life I’ll be replacing them with this brand without hesitation.

Perfect bibs

Perfect bib shorts with pockets! High quality materials, and great fit. I purchased a size large, 5’10”and 185 pounds and they fit perfectly! I highly recommend these bibs!

Bibs

Seem to work fine. It will be interesting to see if the padding lasts. I’m not sued to wearing bibs but they are comfortable

WOW!!!

I have been eyeing these for a while ever since I discovered pocketed bibs from another brand. I wish I had not waited as long as I did to buy Cognative's version! I received the package quickly and upon opening, I was instantly amazed at the design and quality! Everything I have bought from this company has been outstanding. I have ridden packless ever since using pocket bibs. I also just purchased a pair of their guide trail shorts, and I am equally impressed with the quality and comfort. Click the order button and you will not be disappointed. Keep up the good work Cognative!

Great pocketed bib for a great price

Have really enjoyed using these on my longer rides where everything I need as far as nutrition and phone are close and easy to grab, I would highly recommend these!

Best bib out there

I came over to MTB from road and tri. Because of that, I'm significantly more comfortable in full bibs instead of shorts with liners. These are far and away the best pocket bibs I've ever owned. Feel super high quality, the chamois is significantly better than anything you'll find on amazon, and the price is realistic. i bought a tester pair, loved them, and bout 3 more.

better version of the best?

been a huge fan of the SWAT bibs since their inception, its pretty much all I ride in. however over the years that product has changed. pockets shrank, straps shortened, material and craftsmanship declined, price increased, etc. tried a few of other brands that had attempted to jump into the cargo bib game and those too fell short in all those previous mentioned ways. I feel like these bibs are the better version of the original swat bibs. like if you took the OG's and said lets make these better and less expensive and did that, instead of all the bad design unimprovements. So thanks to the team over at Cognative for improving on the best bibs ever.

Price is kinda high

Lycra is supposed to be tight fitting. These fit kinda loose. .I've always had a problem with Baggy shorts snagging on the nose of my saddle. So I like the way lycra fits. And now that merchants are making these shorts with cargo pockets , is a plus in my book. Being able to hold a phone in the side pocket is really cool. But I wouldn't put a phone in these pockets, they are small and loose. Maybe put gels or a map in. Something you wont get too upset about losing. They also have back pockets that exactly like the early SWAT shorts from Specilized. The material feels slippery, so using them as a liner, causes outside short to slide down.

Hello Doug,

I wanted to address some of your concerns from your review:

- You mentioned the price is high. There are no other cargo bibs with these features in the market for a lower price.
- If these are fitting loose, you have too large of a size. These are tight fitting Lycra like all of our Endurance shorts and bibs
- We understand the side pockets may not work for every size phone but the 3 large pockets in the back work great!
- All Lycra material has a smooth finish and 'slippery' like you mentioned. Again, it could be you do not have the correct size. You can see other reviews on these and our standard bibs and this has never been an issue.
- The back pockets are very similar to the SWAT bibs but ours have some design changes that really improve the function. Our pocket size is larger and we also built a 'bottom' to the pocket so items don't get pushed or squeezed up out of the pocket. And one of the best improvements is the overall comfort, especially the shoulder straps. There are numerous reviews mentioning this on our standard bibs which feature the same strap and material, just without the pockets.

Long ride perfection

I am digging these new bibs. Getting things out of my short pockets and not toting a pack with these on. I’ve wore these on 30min hot laps and 6 hour journeys.
